Events outside of our guild...... 1. Studio Art Quilt Associates is showing an exhibit called, 'Colour with a "U"'. It is a juried exhibition of art quilts on the theme of diversity and inclusion by Canadian members of Studio Art Quilt Associates.
“In Canada, we spell colour with a “u”. We care about the “u”, it makes us unique. We care about the “you”, it brings us together. SAQA artists have reflected on the theme of diversity and inclusion to give “colourful” representations of our Canadian cultural identity. Each offers an individual perspective on how we as Canadians see ourselves in our social, historical and physical landscape.” Colour with a U was juried by Faith Hieblinger, Guest Curator, Homer Watson House & Gallery, Alan Syliboy, Mi’kmaq Artist, and Jayne Willoughby, Textile Artist. Colour with a U Too was juried by Dr. Debra Antoncic, Director/Curator of RiverBrink Art Museum. Colour with a “U” and Colour with a “U” Too will be at Campbell House Museum from April 1 – June 3.
